KINGBANSH33 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 Whats up everyone!!! Im a Noob Here and im having problems with my Newley Purchased Banshee. Its an 02 with T5's with foam filter, with cool heads, i think weisco pistons along with reeds. The problem im experiencing is driving me nuts especially after i bought it LOL. Anyway its starts up within the first five kicks runs and idles correct. Pipes look like they are at the same output with little smoke when i rev it which i think is normal. When i take it out it seems like its running on both cylinders but when i give it, the left cylinder starts to hesitate and kick in when im almost a full throttle then perform properly. When i climb a hill it boggs and sounds like it loses power. Im thinkin its a fuel problem since i can still ride it and its sounds good other then the left cylinder kickin in when it wants. I could see major problems if it didnt kick it at all. Please help me out i dropped all my cash to buy this machine and it needs work already LOL. Please help a Fellow Rider Out! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleeper06 Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 swap your plug wires and see if the problem switched sides if not its in your carb,clean it real good,check your cable play and carb sync Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jereme6655 Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 pull your carbs off and give them a good cleaning and then look and see what jet sizes are in it. My bike was doing that when i first bought it and it turned otu that the previous owner never put a larger pilot jet in the carbs to account for how much more my FMF FATTIES needed...

I believe he said he installed a 300 Main. I was thinking thats to big, isnt it? Iv been hearing 240 and up. I know i have mods but nothing crazy. Please advise. I tried Pullingtha Carbs off last night but it got late on me. Any pointers for a NooB! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gstaten24 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 Can't tell you main jet size without knowing you're elevation. Also check and make sure the throttle cable on both carbs is adjusted correctly. Mine was doing that same thing, turns out somehow my left side carb top was not adjusted the same as the right so when I hit the throttle the left wasn't gettin as much fuel as the right.
